East China Sea Territorial Dispute: Japan Resurfaces Protests Over China Gas Facility

• Your Window On The Future (Click Here) July 07: A Japan Coast Guard boat (front) and vessel sail as Uotsuri island, one of the disputed islands, called Senkaku in Japan and Diaoyu in China, is pictured in the background, in the East China Sea on Aug. 18, 2013. Reuters/Ruairidh Villar Japan’s Cabinet has expressed disapproval over China’s new ambitious gas project located in the East China Sea. Japan’s Chief Cabinet Secretary Yoshihide Suga said on Monday that China’s construction of a gas field development facility encroaches on disputed territory. “We have repeatedly protested against China’s unilateral gas development and have urged China to stop it,” Suga said according to the Japan Times . China first broke ground on the Huangyun I facility back in June 2013, becoming one of several projects that totaled $5 billion and caused a fury when it was placed near Japan’s proposed exclusive economic zone and an area of the East China Sea where claims between China

Alaska's loose definition of 'new' oil is bad public fiscal policy

June 06: Pictured: BP's Parker Rig 272, which is drilling into the Lisburne Reservoir at drill site L3 in Prudhoe Bay on Friday, May 22, 2015. Spanish oil corporation Repsol in partnership with Armstrong Oil of Denver has announced a “significant” discovery of “good quality” crude oil on Alaska's North Slope. Testing from 16 vertical and directionally drilled wells projects a structure covering 25,000 acres. It would appear as though SB 21, rebranded as the "More Alaska Production Act," is working like the Alaska Legislature’s oil caucus said it would. During the 2014 initiative to repeal SB 21, the oil caucus argued that significantly reducing Alaska oil taxes from the windfall-based ACES system would change the corporate bottom line resulting in more exploration and production. Unless you worry about hydrocarbon emission-caused global climate change, or the health and subsistence impact on the nearby villages, in this case Nuiqsut, what’s not to like

Schlumberger cuts 9,000 jobs

January 19: Net income dropped to $302 million, or 23 cents a share, from $1.66 billion, or $1.26, a year earlier. Photo: Bloomberg file Houston: Schlumberger, the world's biggest oilfield-services company, tackled the "uncertain environment" of plummeting crude prices head-on by cutting 9,000 jobs and lowering costs at a vessels unit. The 7.1 per cent workforce cutback, along with the reduction and reassessment of its WesternGeco fleet, were among steps leading to a $1.77 billion fourth-quarter charge in anticipation of lower spending by customers in 2015, the Houston- and Paris- based company said in an earnings report on Thursday. Energy companies, coping with oil worth less than half its price six months ago, are expected to cut spending in the US by as much as 35 per cent this year, according to Cowen. The number of onshore US rigs could fall by as much as 750 this year, Wells Fargo said in a note on Wednesday. That would be a 43 per cent decline from the 1

Completing Keystone Pipeline would ensure safest transport of oil

June 21: A national debate is raging concerning the proposed building of the Keystone XL Pipeline. It would carry crude oil from Canadian tar sands to the Texas shore of the Gulf of Mexico. The southern section of the pipeline, connecting Cushing, Oklahoma, and the Gulf, is complete and carrying oil. The planned northern leg of the pipeline would begin in Canada and connect to the southern leg. That would double the volume of oil exported from Canada. The total length of the pipeline would be about 1,660 miles. Pressured by a diverse assortment of environmental groups, President Barack Obama’s administration has placed construction of the northern section on hold, pending further decisions. The initial case against building the pipeline was the danger of an oil leak polluting the Ogallala aquifer. The body of water underlies the Great Plains and supplies drinking water for several states. It also contributes greatly to our abundance of food by irrigating a third of our farmland
